BEAUTY & THE BEAST #VisualRetelling #Beauty&theBeast
***FREE STORY***Antoine, his daughters Marthe, Marie and Beauty must leave fashionable Paris for rural Avon, in the shadow of enchanted forêt de Fontainebleau. News from Paris offers the family a glimmer of hope, until Antoine comes face to face with a ferocious Beast... Wattpad Reader Reviews: @nycgal38 I love the beginning! I'm thinking at this point it would make a wonderful bedtime story. It's so beautifully described! @thebeast86 This is so well written. I LOVE your writing style ❤❤❤ @AmandaUrie23 I love how in your version of beauty and the beast, you've given the beauty's sisters more character and made them more realistic as opposed to most accounts where the sisters are just bland and mean. I also like how you've given Belle a backstory. The best part in all of this is the historical accuracy, and the proper use of royal titles. It's my first time reading this and I'm so excited for what's to come! @MellifluousSkies This feels like a brand new story, as I am reading it, even though it is "a tale as old as time". Great story telling...I love the filling out you have done with such a classic tale, adding more background and feelings to really give the story a large presence. Brava! @random__thoughts I'm so glad that I found this! It's amazing and deserves way more attention! @mirabellaspencer I love love love ur book beauty and the beast. The way that u changed the story but yet kept it the same was amazing. @juliadarcy87 Omg Disney skipped the plan to eat her haha. @eldorado16 Love the first line! And impressed by how Beauty seems to bring out the best in everyone - except her sisters. @AmericanBeauty_y I effing love this story! I don't understand why it isn't more popularComplete
The Rose of Anthacena
A futuristic retelling of Beauty and the Beast. (But the futuristic part is relatively non-existent.) Violet O'Reilly is a girl from Ireland who--with her father, step-mother, brother, and step-sister--leads a happy, comfortable life. But after her merchant father's fortune changes, so do their lives. When her father becomes a thief, Violet must travel to the Beast's mansion in order to pay for his crime. Note--I wrote this a couple years ago, which means it's not great. It also has yet to be revised at ALL. I know certain parts don't make sense or are really stupid, but I just haven't gotten around to fixing them yet.Complete

Winter's Rose ~A Beauty and the Beast Retelling~
'"Oh, William, there will be no heir. The throne will sit empty for years. Everything your father created will be gone. And you will not be able to stop it." She walked towards him, like the serpent in the garden. She touched her finger to his forehead, and leaned into close, "You will become the thing you fear the most; a monster who lurks in the night; a soul lost from its path. You will be blinded by your own fear. As time goes on--and it will go on--you will be trapped by your fear until it consumes you. You will forever be a monster, and you won't be able to stop it." "No," he clamored, "I'll overcome it, I'll fight it every day until I die." "Oh, my dear, you will not die. You will be immune to death--a monster today, a monster tomorrow, and a monster forever. A soul lost from its path can only be led back to the light, it cannot find its own path."' (The Two Curses) ~~ How can a person lead you back to the light when they are as blind as you?Complete
Morbid Bite
A dark retelling of Beauty and the Beast Annabelle Novacek has never much liked how people view her. She was a beautiful rose to be admired and protected.

The journey doesn't go as anticipated and their carriage is attacked. Annabelle only just escapes with her life but she is flung out to desperately search for any sign of life. The local nobleman takes her in, but the longer she stays the more she hears about the dark secrets the village holds; a ravage beast that roams the forest and lies in wait for its next victim. Beauty fades but true kindness lasts an eternity. - - - - - - - - - - - - - Cover by @ForcadeComplete

King Regol has made a deal with the devil, or rather, a beast. A monster. Or so he claims. When he uses the deal for his own advantage, he threatens a girl named Zara, who has had everything but her family taken away. Zara is ordered to kill the beast Regol made a deal with, unbenownst to her that the deal even exists. When her attempt fails, she is left with two choices: to never go back home, or to learn from the beast so she can take back what is hers. She faces dangers on the castle grounds she thought were only stories; magic, creatures that kill a person in a single puff of air, and lastly, the beast, who can barely control the darkness that has buried itself in him for years. The longer she is on the castle grounds, however, the more she realizes everything is more than it seems... ...and that she has a power she could only dream about. **** A retelling of Beauty and the Beast Wonderful cover by @nicegirlsreadbooks Highest rank: #1 in Fantasy #4 in AdventureComplete

Beauty and the Bird
A Beauty and the Beast retelling: Once Upon a Time... there was a cursed forest where animals who could live forever existed. The animals lived in harmony with one another and away from the prying eyes of humans. However, this immortality had an unimaginable price: if the animals were ever to be killed and die, they would turn into the worst possible thing imaginable... a human. As far as they know, no animal has been killed, until now. "The beautiful red bird soared through the ocean blue sky and perched on the top tree branch. There it sang the most beautiful tune. As he starred at the bird, he noticed how the feathers shined in the sunlight. The bird had a bright red body but the top of it's head was dark black. As he put his gun down he heard a shot and quickly looked up. The bird fell from the tree. It had been killed."Complete
